Carpe Diem

Listen to Carter Ace's emotionally-charged "Carpe Diem".

Carter Ace is a 6-member band from Los Angeles, California, and their latest record is something of a eulogy of frontman Oneil Carter's late cousin. The song was already partially written before he received the bad news, at which point he reworked the song, originally titled "September," into what it is now known as "Carpe Diem". Like the previous music we've heard from the group, the band uses dynamics to their advantage to conjure emotions and shift the feel of their songs, as the record eventually explodes into an instrumental climax in its final moments.
